The 2020 Atlantic hurricane season is still expected to be a busy one, despite a brief lull in activity after a fast start in May and June.

formed Monday night over the Eastern Pacific Ocean and was located 370 miles west-southwest of Manzanillo, Mexico, on Thursday with maximum sustained winds of 65 mph. Meteorologists believe Cristina could become a Category 2 hurricane with maximum sustained winds of 95 mph, but it is not likely to make landfall and instead will remain well away from Central America and Mexico

Feltgen said the Atlantic hurricane season is "ahead of the pace" with its early start. Tropical Storm Edouard, the earliest fifth tropical storm since the 1960s, became a post-tropical cyclone on Monday as it tracked toward Ireland and the United Kingdom,Arthur and Bertha both formed off of the eastern U.S. shoreline in May. Cristobal became the Atlantic's earliest"C" named storm on record June 2.

Dolly was the second-earliest"D" named storm to ever reach the basin, though it did not make landfall.Meteorologists are also monitoring a disturbance along the Atlantic coastline, which could develop into Tropical Storm Fay, but the system was not likely to intensify into a hurricane. "It is likely a tropical depression or subtropical depression will form close to the coast, where the overall ceiling for intensification is lower," AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Randy Adkins said."If it moves farther from the coast, it is more likely it will develop into Fay."

Still, the storm produced flooding in the Carolinas on Thursday and is expected to move northward along the coast this week, reaching New England by Friday.

If Schools Are Open This Fall, Certain Kids Should Be Given Priority For In-Person AttendanceYes, what I am advocating for will piss many parents off. This is the smart thing to do. Unfortunately everyone in charge of things do the opposite of what's smart. The way kids will be back at school is also problematic for special needs kids. Kids w/ hyperactivity/ attention issues will NOT be ok in a class with desks facing one way 6ft apart no, fidgets etc,spot on a carpet to read is not allowed - we need to be able to go back properly This is why I'm homeschooling this year. My kid will be fine and our family situation allows for it. Other kids need physical school so much more than he does right now.
